G'morning all...it was a very exciting day here in the Barber household yesterday...it was secondary school (High School) allocation day and 1000's of 10-11 year olds across the country eagerly awaited for an email or snail mail to notify them which school they had been offered for september 2011...we were one of the lucky one's that got our No.1 choice of school...WOOHOO! However, I do know there are quite a few children that did not get their first choice and were only offered their third...big hugz to them and I want to wish them well and send good luck wishes if they are appealing!

On to today's card for The Creative Cottage Challenge...this fortnights theme has been chosen by the gorgeous Rebekah and she has challenged us to use a tag on our projects...the theme is ...TAG YOU'RE IT! My teamies have created some stunning creations and we really look forward to seeing the entries for this one. You don't have to use a Creative Cottage paper pack or kit to enter but we would love it if you did!

Gorgeous card Donna. So sweet an image and lovely colours.Congratulations on getting your number one choice of school!Hugs, Clare xp.s. I nearly forgot, thank you for joining us at Sir Stampalot this month.

seems funny to hear about schools accepting you...apart from us homeschooling, the children in our neighborhood/region must attend the school located in that neighborhood. Parents can pay to send their children to a school outside their region but the parent would also need to provide transportation, which would be a big hassle for most! Under privileged children usually have no choice but to attend the poorly run, sometimes dangerous schools in their own neighborhoods!

Hi DonnaSuper sweet card - love the image (I have a bit of a soft spot for Sally-Ann's images)Congrats on getting your 1st choice school - last year we had a nightmare getting Jack's 1st choice - but we went to appeal and won and he is loving it there.Have a fab eveningDebs xx

A little Bit About Me

I have always enjoyed having a hobby and in recent years I have knitted, cross-stitched and done a bit of sewing but cardmaking took over when I went on a beginners course in 2005. I also enjoy crocheting...nothing too fancy, mainly granny squares and baby blankets. I have a real soft spot for digi images and paper downloads especially gingham, stripes and polka dots.

A Little Plea!

Please donot directly copy any of my cards or use the ideas as your own. I hope you enjoy looking at my Blog.
